Wilbur was taken aback because he had never lived there, but it seemed that the people who came to Anderson Town over the years mainly were those who had once lived there.


    Wilbur replied, "That''s right, but there''s something I''m curious about. Besides people who used to live here, has no one elsee to visit?"


    Thedy shrugged and replied, "Over the past ten years, many people havee to Anderson Town, but they were all former residents, returning to revisit their memories. Other than that, no one elsees here. After all, Anderson Town is a remote ce that''s easy to forget."


    "An easy ce to forget?"


    Wilbur pondered as he returned to his room, reying her words in his mind.


    If everything she said was true, why did Fremont use copper ore from the Ezekiel Mine?


    Besides, Wilbur had researched online and found that many closed copper mines worldwide had be tourist attractions.


    These sites drew numerous visitors annually, and guides recounted their rich history.


    Yet, the Ezekiel Mine seemed to have a different fate.


    If the Ezekiel Mine were destined to be forgotten, the hard work and sweat of those whobored there would also go unnoticed.


    This ce would eventually be overlooked, appearing only in the "rted entries" section on the inte, with no one truly remembering it.


    Yet, with millions of such entries online, who would pay special attention to the Ezekiel Mine?


    A ce where people silently sacrificed themselves and were ultimately forgotten had something inmon with the legendary dragons.


    Few have seen real dragons, yet they were more precious than any other creature.


    In Dasha''s traditional twelve zodiac animals, only the dragon remained hidden and mystical.


    Hard work contributed to a person''s wealth, and their status was also closely tied to their efforts.


    Wilbur believed that Fremont had chosen the copper ore from the Ezekiel Mine for forging the ninth cauldron because he recognized the resilience and determination of the Dasha workers.


    Attention to detail was crucial to ensuring something achieved its full potential.


    Dragons, being extraordinary creatures sustained by energy, needed a specific kind of human aura.


    Hence, Fremont might be looking for this particr kind of aura.


    The ws were among the toughest parts of a dragon''s body, second only to its teeth.


    The Dasha workers at the Ezekiel Mine embodied the same spirit of tenacity and hard work.


    Theybored tirelessly and remained unrecognized, much like the dragon''s ws. Dragon ws were used to catch food, and while they never kept the food for themselves, they became stronger as the dragon grew.


    Wilbur finally realized what Fremont was trying to teach him.


    While the dragon ws were strong, they would not be mighty if the dragon itself was weak.


    It was the same in cultivation.


    Fremont implied that dragon aura varied, and mastering dragon aura was moreplex than he had imagined.


    After a night''s rest, Wilbur visited the closed Ezekiel Mine the following day.


    Staring at the barred entrance, he imagined the sweating Dasha workersboring hard within.


    Suddenly, he noticed the First Cauldron floated into the air as if responding to an unseen force, slowly rotating in mid-air.
